ASSIGNED NUMBERS

Unlike the MPAA we do not assign one inscrutable rating based on age, but 3 objective ratings for SEX/NUDITY, VIOLENCE/GORE and PROFANITY on a scale of 0 to 10, from lowest to highest, depending on quantity and context.

Two American brothers are given the task of taking their grandfather's ashes to Germany and sprinkling them in his homeland, and they are surprised to uncover family secrets that involve a secret underground beer competition. Receiving a humiliating reception from their German cousins, they return stateside, determined to train and return to Germany in order to win " Beerfest." With Paul Soter, Erik Stolhanske, Steve Lemme, Kevin Heffernan and Jay Chandrasekhar. Directed by Chandrasekhar. [1:40]

A CAVEAT: We've gone through several editorial changes since we started covering films in 1992 and some of our early standards were not as stringent as they are now. We therefore need to revisit many older reviews, especially those written prior to 1998 or so; please keep this in mind if you're consulting a review from that period. While we plan to revisit and correct older reviews our resources are limited and it is a slow, time-consuming process.
